🏆🔥☁️ About The Record POOR Air Quality Locally Today
🚨🌫️Baltimore’s Worst Air Quality Days (Modern Record) In. Real Time Data. The EPA will have a formal report tomorrow which may have deeper records to compare...
⏰📉 11 AM number of 201 is down (but still UNHEALTHY) from the peak of 260 earlier this morning (around 6 AM).
📝This Canadian wildfire smoke may have rewritten the record books.
🥇 1. July 17, 2026 – AQI 260 (Very Unhealthy) ⭐ Highest on record
🥈 2. June 29, 2023 – AQI ~205 (Very Unhealthy)
🥉 3. June 8, 2023 – AQI 187 (Unhealthy)
4️⃣ June 7, 2023 – AQI 156 (Unhealthy)
5️⃣ June 30, 2023 – AQI ~150–180 (Unhealthy)
⚠️ All five of these events were caused by smoke from Canadian wildfires, not local pollution.
For comparison:
* 🟢 0–50: Good
* 🟡 51–100: Moderate
* 🟠 101–150: Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups
* 🔴 151–200: Unhealthy
* 🟣 201–300: Very Unhealthy
* ⚫ 301+: Hazardous
For air quality, it depends on the type of record:
* 🌫️ EPA Air Quality Index (AQI): Reliable daily AQI records go back to the late 1990s, when the current AQI system was adopted (1999).
* 🔬 PM2.5 (fine particle pollution): Continuous regulatory monitoring in Baltimore generally goes back to 1999–2000.
* 🏭 Earlier pollution records: Ozone, sulfur dioxide, carbon
monoxide, and total suspended particulates exist back into the 1970s under the Clean Air Act.
* 📜 Before the 1970s: Records become sparse and are not directly comparable because monitoring methods and pollutants were different.
